Is it possible?

I know about the hulking hurler but I wanted to know if there's a prestige class for a small character that functions as ammo for the thrower?

Bonus points if it can be done on a Halfling Barbarian

There is Fling Ally feat from Races of Stone. It let's you throw an ally at least 1 size category smaller then you. (See Picture)

You have to be Large or have Powerful Build to qualify, though.http://www.wizards.com/dnd/images/ros_gallery/83327.jpg

Well, there is the Highland Stalker prestige class- would that make it a Highland Fling? :smallbiggrin:

330. No, the Warforged fighter cannot hurl the shifter barbarian at his enemies.

331. Even with an action point.

332. *sigh* Okay, roll your Strength check. (http://wiki.rpg.net/index.php/Forgotten_Freedom:1_1001)

Is that orc so disturbed because someone just threw a halfling at him, or because the halfling looks freakin' weird?

I think it's a gnome. Or maybe just a midget? Who knows?

Oompa Loompa?

He does look pretty orange.

Oompa Loompa?

Yes, I think the orc is scared by the Oompa Loompa because he is a diabetic with a bad case of tooth decay...

Who said it's a halfling? My money is on evil animated ventriloquist's dummy.
I'm also curious about the original question, though. Is that Throw Ally feat adequate to turn throwing builds into friend-throwing builds? I don't have Races of Stone.

Off hand, I'd say no, but I have never played a Thrower. You can throw medium creatures up to 25 and small ones up to 75 feet. If you have the Improved Rock Hurling Feat, you can throw Mediums up to 100 Feet, and Small up to 200 feet.


Rock Hurling and Improved Rock Hurling are both feats from the same book, by the way, and the Fling Ally requires you to have rock hurling racial trait, or the Rock Hurling Feat

Look at the link on my sig :smallwink:

Anyways... any feat or prestige class for the Hurlee? I would really love to see it.

I think you would have to homebrew a PrC but since its a one time attack my DM ruled it worthy of sneak attack damage so rogue would be great and I haven't tried it but I heard "confound the Big Folk" is a good feat for the Hurlee

Anyways... any feat or prestige class for the Hurlee? I would really love to see it.The one being hurled seems like s/he would benefit from Blade Bravo, where being Small or smaller is a benefit. Something like Bloodclaw Master or Dervish, that emphasizes TWF/Multiweapon Fighting, would also work well to make the attacks really hurt.

Alternately, if the Hurler is a Hulking Hurler, then being larger and taking the Willing Deformity (Obese) makes you a more damaging projectile depending on how heavy you are.
